NewJeans Breaks 700 Million Streams for 'OMG' on Spotify
'Attention' has been played 401,316,668 times
The group 'NewJeans' has set a significant record on Spotify, the world's largest music streaming platform.
On the 1st, Spotify announced that NewJeans' "OMG" was streamed 703,513,16 times as of the 30th of last month. This marks NewJeans' first single song to reach 700 million streams.
Additionally, "Attention," one of the triple title tracks from their debut album "New Jeans," was streamed 401,316,68 times on the same day. With this, "Attention" became NewJeans' fifth song to surpass 400 million streams in total.
Both songs became mega hits immediately upon release. "OMG," released in early January last year, along with "Ditto," another track from the same album, swept the top two spots on major domestic music charts.
At that time, NewJeans, only six months into their debut, earned the honor of entering the US Billboard main singles chart, the "Hot 100." "OMG" received critical acclaim as well, being selected as one of the "Best Songs of 2023" by prominent overseas media such as Consequence and the Associated Press, in addition to its popular success.
The debut song "Attention," released in August 2022, also caused a sensation on domestic and international charts, becoming a popular track. Both "OMG" and "Attention" continue to maintain steady positions on charts in Korea, Japan, and other countries.
NewJeans holds a total of 12 songs with over 100 million streams on Spotify, including "OMG" and "Ditto," which has over 600 million streams. The combined cumulative streaming count of all songs released by NewJeans on Spotify is approaching 4.8 billion.
